Push-Start Review: Don't Be Afraid of the Dark

"Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark is a waste of time, and the wasted time is an unbearably dull experience. The slow pacing and saggy editing worsen the impact of such a dire film, everyone involved seems bored and struggling to care. Clearly brought on board due to Del Toro’s ‘visionary’ clout, reputation here doesn’t amount to a hill of beans and the end result is an unoriginal, uninspiring barrage of tedium that isn’t even stupid enough to make up for the endurance of having to sit through it."
